So I got this great idea to take the fenders off of my 80 Spyder. I was gonna paint the backs, check for rust, you know, just tinker. Only to find out, the kid that owned it before me broke off all but one bolt that held the whole drivers side on. How did I not notice this? Maybe because a person would never think to look! Until now. So heres the problem: the broken bolts do not scare me, as they can be replaced after extraction (famous words huh). The deal is, the nose assembly that the headlights are in, plastic and all, is completely broken. The rubber cover is missing all but one of the rings it mounts with. So my question is, who makes the best inexpensive replacement for the nose? I dont really want to go one piece clip, but just the whole headlight assembly. This whole thing is reminding me of growing up restoring cars with my dad, and him always saying oh no, and me thinking it was alright. Amazing the older I get, the wiser, or less blind, I become.
